Misconceptions Around Separation Anxiety
Myth
You caused your dog’s separation anxiety
You should just let your dog cry it out
Your dog is being difficult, stubborn, or spiteful.
Your dog’s separation anxiety will resolve on its own
Truth
A multitude of factors contribute to separation anxiety including genetics, health, and environment.
Letting a dog who suffers with alone time issues “cry it out” will often only lead to further issues, prolonging your dog’s recovery.
Much like humans suffering with anxiety disorders, dog’s suffering from separation anxiety can’t control their outward display of anxiety.
If left untreated, separation anxiety can become worse, and take longer to resolve.
Signs of Separation Anxiety

Unable to relax, overly vigilant
Barking or crying excessively
Soiling in the house, diarrhea
Pacing, trembling, whining
Destructive behaviour: digging, scratching ripping or chewing
Escape attempts
Excessive licking, chewing of paws or other body parts
